    RIP Chris.
    It's also linked to on the front page of CNN.com, near the top. Good.

    It's a top story. Glad for the recognition of the man, and the band.

    I was glad to see Stanley Clarke's fb page mention his passing as well. Not surprised Geddy was influenced by Chris and I can't imagine Stanley not being influenced by him also. Unfortunately it just said RIP Chris on one of the pages and someone said "Chris who?" Oh well. Also, I wish the CNN page had something other than "Owner" as a tribute to him. It's not exactly the most representative of his best playing.

    This hurts... Such sad news.

    Was really hoping he would pull through. My condolences to his family and friends.

    I'm grateful that I got to see him in concert in 2013 and 2014, and grateful for the music he gave that became part of my life.

    A brilliant musician and player, and a giant in his field. Miss him already.

    This morning NPR news used a short clip from Roundabout in their story which seems like it might provide the best combination of recognizable and representative.
